How to get to Oldhamstocks Cottage ....: Oldhamstocks is a small village in South East Scotland in a lovely country setting but at the same time actually very well connected to major rail, road and air facilities. Basically, it's very easy indeed to get here. The A1 is only 2 miles from the cottage (for those of you that don't know, its a major road heading either south to Newcastle or north to Edinburgh and beyond). Distances and travelling times to major towns are as follows: Edinburgh 30 miles / 35 minutes (road) / 22 minutes (train) Glasgow 60 miles / 90 minutes (road) Newcastle 60 miles / 90 minutes (road) London 300 miles / 3.5 hours (rail) National Express Trains run from our local stations Dunbar 12 minutes drive or Berwick-Upon-Tweed 25 minutes drive. From Edinburgh, Glasgow and Newcastle international airports you can reach pretty much all parts of the UK, most of Europe and effectively the rest of the planet!
